Chapter 386 The Xiao Family's Backstabbing, Departure Imminent
At the entrance of the City Lord's Mansion, Xiao Jinli, her beautiful face flushed, saw Xu Xiao off with a charming smile.
Turning around, he saw the elders and clansmen in the main hall looking at their clan leader with furrowed brows and deep worry in their eyes.
Xu the scoundrel hasn't succeeded yet, but they're extremely worried!
"That family! That's a perverted lecher!"
"Everyone who gets it will be killed!"
"He's only after the patriarch's good looks! Patriarch, you absolutely mustn't!"
Several elders, united in spirit, lamented with heartache; they could not bear to watch their patriarch fall into a trap.
Xiao Jinli narrowed her beautiful eyes, regaining her composure as the head of the Xiao family, and said thoughtfully, "Don't worry, everyone. I was just putting on an act with Xu Xiao. It's nothing serious."
"As you all know, Xu Xiao has obtained the Dao Yuan inheritance and possesses boundless resources. This is an excellent opportunity for my Xiao family."
"For the sake of the Xiao family, I am willing to make a small sacrifice. Rest assured, I know what I'm doing and will not let him act recklessly."
Seeing Xiao Jinli's meticulous mind and calm expression, the elders and clansmen breathed a sigh of relief.
That's it!
The head of the family is just playing along with that scoundrel to gain resources!
Fortunately!
They said, "How could such a slut possibly be pleasing to the head of the household!"
Good! He should bleed badly!!
But for the sake of the Xiao family, the patriarch is even willing to sacrifice this; it's so touching!!
As expected of the Xiao family!
Some of the young clansmen who admired Xiao Jinli were moved to tears, and hated Xu Xiao to the core.
Damn it, you shameless scoundrel! How dare you lay your evil claws on the head of the family!
They're going to die a violent death sooner or later!!!
Xiao Jinli turned back to look in the direction Xu Xiao had left, her beautiful face still flushed.
A faint hint of guilt appeared in her eyes; she simply sighed silently and exhaled a fragrant breath.
Xu Xiao returned to the Wuwang Immortal Sect's residence in Ironflame City.
In three days, it will be time to head to the Yin Sha Minor Realm.
At that time, the entire Ironflame City will be transported to the Yin Sha Realm under the spell of the Xiao family patriarch, where it will stay for a considerable period of time. Before the Yin Sha Realm closes, the Ironflame City will be manipulated to return.
All the cultivators in the city will follow.
There are no restrictions for cultivators below the Mahayana level, but Mahayana cultivators need to wear a suppression artifact to successfully follow Ironflame City in breaking through the boundary.
The suppression artifact only works on cultivators at or below the sixth level of the Mahayana stage. Among the top cultivators at or above the sixth level of the Mahayana stage, there is only the Xiao family patriarch in the entire city.
The next day, a group of inner sect elders sighed and chatted idly in the courtyard of the mansion.
"That brat! He's offended all the sects in the four regions with just one auction! This is utterly reckless!!"
"We've offended everyone! How are my Wuwang Immortal Sect supposed to survive in the Yin Sha Realm?! Can't you at least be mindful of the occasion when you're trying to pick up girls?! This is Iron Flame City!!!"
"I told you long ago we shouldn't have brought this kid along!!! Damn it!!! Spirit stones shouldn't be used like this!!! It breaks my heart!!!"
"Elders, let it go. In the end, it was this kid who provided the spirit stones and bought the suppression artifact. Our Wuwang Immortal Sect has a greater advantage."
"Sigh... that's true. It's rare to be able to get so many spirit stones for the sect. Even if there are ulterior motives, it's still a contribution."
Considering that Xu Xiao paid to buy out the suppression artifact, the elders forgave him.
Fengyi Chixia still looked disdainful, while Diyi Chan Baili Haitang sighed silently.
What a pervert!
snort!
Xu Xiao had already prepared them for the worst, and they were barely able to accept Xiao Jinli.
At this moment, Jian Chen, Man Jin, Man Yin, Yin Wuji, and other disciples hurriedly returned.
"Master! Elders! Something terrible has happened! A large number of suppression magic artifacts have appeared on the black market in the city! And they're only five hundred top-grade spirit stones each!"
"We've bought all the top sects from the four regions! We've even bought from some second-rate sects!! We can't possibly buy them all! There's still a lot left over!"
"Senior Brother's spirit stones! A complete waste!!!"
The inner sect elders were shocked. "What the hell?! What's going on?!"
After careful consideration, the inner sect elders, including Muxu Jiujian and Mantian, gritted their teeth in anger.
Damn it, the Xiao family is a bunch of scoundrels!
It works in both light and dark environments!!!
In the past, it was possible to find two or three suppression artifacts on the black market, but never this many.
The Xiao family is so desperate for spirit stones, they've completely abandoned all pretense!
The news quickly reached Yu Bing Shang Shui, and even Xu Xiao was summoned to the main hall.
Yu Bing's beautiful face darkened, and she slammed her hand on the table, frowning as she said, "Too greedy!"
"This time, my Wuwang Immortal Sect has given Xiao Jinli so many spirit stones for free, and he's still not satisfied!"
"You dare to release a large number of suppressing magical artifacts on the black market to betray my Wuwang Immortal Sect! Xiao family, you'll pay for this!"
After saying that, she looked at Xu Xiao and snorted coldly, "Xu Xiao, this is the Xiao Jinli you have your eye on. This idea must be related to her. What do you think, Sect Leader?"
"Don't think that people will be grateful to you just because you give them some resources; it's all just for show!"
The inner sect elders looked at Xu Xiao with sympathetic eyes and silently shook their heads.
What a pity... Deacon Xu spent tens of thousands of spirit stones and even gave away a spirit treasure, only to be betrayed like this.
Isn't this a classic case of a simp getting nothing in the end?
Instead of feeling sad, people felt a strange sense of satisfaction.
Seeing Xu Xiao get his comeuppance made them incredibly happy.
discipline!
Punish this lecherous scoundrel severely!
He won't learn his lesson without suffering a bit; this will be good for Deacon Xu in the future! Hehe!
Zhao Wuji and Ye Chen finally revealed a sinister smile. "You scoundrel, this is what happens when you try to show off!"
very good! ! !
On the third day, all the cultivators in the city gathered in the city square, forming a dense, endless mass.
The eight top immortal sects, under the arrangement of the Xiao family, are preparing to break through the boundary with Iron Flame City and head to the Yin Sha Minor Realm.
Over the past two days, the remaining Mahayana cultivators from various sects have arrived one after another, including at least five or six from top-tier sects and seven from the Wuwang Immortal Sect.
Besides Yu Bing, Shang Shui, and Zhao Wuji, there were also Feng Lan, Chang Yue, and Di Ling who arrived later.
Hearing that the suppressing magic artifacts were inexhaustible, the Demoness Elder, who was in seclusion, also forcibly came out of seclusion.
Mo Shu was born in the Demon Heaven Pavilion and was the master of the Black Demon Heavenly Venerable, the head of the Demon Heaven Pavilion.
A very pretty young girl in a black dress, petite and cute, who looked to be about eighteen or nineteen years old.
However, I heard that he is already 60,000 years old, which is actually the oldest among the group of people from the Wuwang Immortal Sect.
It's even bigger than the Earth Spirit Zhao Wuji.
"Heh! That scoundrel Xu Xiao! Still trying to trick us? Trick my ass! Feeling good about being betrayed now? Haha!!!"
"That scoundrel deserves to die like this! That's satisfying!"
In the center of the square, the leaders of the eight major immortal sects from the four regions, having calmed down, grinned from ear to ear and mocked Xu Xiao relentlessly.
I don't hate the Wuwang Immortal Sect that much, I just hate that shameless scoundrel Xu Xiao!
How dare you cheat them!
court death! !
Everyone feels better now.
Even Lu Xueyao, the head of the Qingyun Immortal Sect, had a rare smile on her usually cold and beautiful face, clearly indicating that she was in a good mood.
The disciples of the Wuwang Immortal Sect silently shook their heads, looking at Xu Xiao with pity.
You brat, learn your lesson... You've been ridiculed to the point of being utterly humiliated!
"Deacon Xu."
While waiting to break through the barrier, Xiao Jinli, dressed in a red dress, walked over with a hint of guilt in her beautiful eyes.
“Steward Xu, the decision to suppress magical artifacts in the black market was made by the family elders, and I cannot interfere… If Steward Xu is unhappy, I can return the portion of the spirit stones I received to you.”
She thought about it for three days and decided it wouldn't be right not to tell Xu Xiao about it.
If the other party gets angry, wouldn't it be a loss to refuse to provide her with resources?
The members of the eight major immortal sects looked over, their eyes filled with mockery and ridicule. This was the fate of a lecher!
Still chasing girls?
I'll f*** your head!
Awesome! Hahaha!
Xu Xiao smiled slightly and said calmly, "Patriarch Xiao, it's alright. Those were spirit stones that I gave you in the first place."
"Even without the auction, I'd still be willing to give you spirit stones, no matter how many, because we're destined to meet."
The crowd was somewhat bewildered, and their disdain grew even stronger after they realized what was happening.
Dog thief!
Still showing off!
They must be heartbroken!
Xu Xiao took out a top-grade Enlightenment Pill from his spatial storage and placed it in Xiao Jinli's fair hand, smiling, "Patriarch Xiao, this is a top-grade Enlightenment Pill. Patriarch, you are not far from breaking through to the Great Ascension Upper Realm. With the help of this pill, you can achieve twice the result with half the effort."
"Huh?! Another Enlightenment Pill?!" Xiao Jinli swallowed hard, completely dumbfounded.
She thought the other party would be angry, but now it seems they aren't angry at all, and they've even sent her more resources.
It's an incredibly precious, top-grade Enlightenment Pill!!!
Oh my god! !
Xu Xiao is absolutely in love with her!!!
Unable to contain her excitement, Xiao Jinli moved her voluptuous and alluring body and hugged Xu Xiao tightly. "Steward Xu, you are so good to me! I don't know how to repay you!"
Her body smelled wonderful, and she was deeply moved.
[Congratulations, host, on successfully gifting a top-grade Enlightenment Pill. The Primordial Qi Pill will be returned.]
Xu Xiao nodded in satisfaction. He didn't care about the ridicule and sarcasm outside; making a fortune was the most important thing.
"What the hell?!?!"
"Patriarch Xiao?! They succeeded already?!?!?!?!"
"You damn bastard!!!! You dog!!!! Let me go right now!!!!"
They were still mocking and ridiculing him, but when they saw Xu Xiao giving them resources to woo a girl, and he was about to succeed, they were all taken aback.
They could hardly believe their eyes and were completely dumbfounded.
That damn scoundrel!!!
The reason everyone felt so good was because Xu Xiao was being played by Xiao Jinli, and now it seems that this isn't just playing around, it's actually going to become real!
No!!!!!!
Even the disciples of the Wuwang Immortal Sect were dumbfounded.
The petite and exquisite Demoness looked at the recently infamous junior, Xu Xiao, and blinked her beautiful big eyes.
This is Xu Xiao!
They really know how to give gifts; no wonder Xiao Bingbing wanted to become their Daoist partner!
The little head nodded silently, a glint of light shimmering in its eyes. Hmm?
Suddenly, a strange smile appeared on her beautiful and lovely face.
Oh dear, thank goodness we made it out of customs!
Xiao Jinli gently embraced Xu Xiao, gradually attracting the attention of everyone present, including the Xiao family.
Am I crazy? !
The head of the Xiao family?!
No!!!!!!!
You scoundrel! You damn fool!
